1. Historical Context and Purpose

In BE2515, Luang Phor Phrom created a batch of Phra Somdej amulets featuring a rubber-stamped Yant on the back, which became popularly known as “Lang Trayant” or “Stamped Back” models.

This batch was intended to:

• Fund the restoration of Wat Chong Khae’s Ubosot (ordination hall)

• Distribute sacred objects to disciples during a period of high demand

• Provide powerful spiritual protection and Metta Maha Niyom (loving-kindness) during a time of social and economic transition in Thailand

This was one of the first Somdej-style releases that carried both a traditional front Buddha image and a clearly visible mystical yantra at the back, using a custom rubber stamp, which was quite rare and innovative at the time.

2. Amulet Design and Features

• Front (Obverse): Traditional Somdej Buddha image seated in Samadhi (meditation) posture on a three-tiered base, framed by an arched niche

• Back (Reverse): Distinct Trayant (Yantra) applied with rubber ink stamp during consecration. Common forms include:

  • Yant Phutthakhun or

  • Yant Phra Putta Jao 5 Phra Ong

• Size: Small-medium, rectangular, suitable for neck-wear

• Color: Light cream, beige, grayish-brown (depending on batch mix)

• Texture: Soft-grain, compact sacred powder; often seen with natural aging, small cracks, or sacred powder bloom 

3. Sacred Material Composition (Phong Wahn)

Luang Phor Phrom meticulously prepared the material from various auspicious sources:

• Phong Patamang and Itthijay: Sacred powders from Buddhist scripture chanting

• Ash from candle wax, incense, and ceremonial robes

• Pollen from sacred flowers used in temple rituals

• Old crushed amulet fragments from ancient temples (e.g., Wat Bang Khen, Wat Rakang)

The materials were left to ferment and spiritually infuse over time before being hand-pressed into molds.

4. Consecration Ceremony (Phuttha Phisek)

The Phra Somdej Lang Trayant batch underwent a full consecration process personally overseen by Luang Phor Phrom, who was known for his intense meditation and mastery in spiritual blessings:

• Held at Wat Chong Khae’s Ubosot

• Ritual included:

  • 7-day and 7-night candlelight chanting (จุดเทียนชัย)

  • Continuous Pali mantra recitation during molding and stamping

  • Personal blessing from Luang Phor Phrom, including handwritten Yant on some back surfaces

  • Final blessing was held during Makha Bucha or Visakha Bucha, attracting hundreds of devotees

The use of a sacred rubber stamp on the back was considered symbolic — like an official spiritual seal of protection, similar to a royal endorsement of authenticity.
